‘Hipster’ humor backfires on London firefighters after pop-up restaurant blaze

The London Fire Brigade (LFB) had to apologize on Sunday after posting a joke on Twitter which said that "thankfully no hipsters were injured" in a blaze at a pop-up restaurant the firefighters had dealt with.

The recent blaze allegedly involving ‘hipsters’ broke out at a pop-up restaurant in London's Shoreditch district, packed with bars, restaurants and clubs popular among the hip crowd. Around half of the building was damaged in the fire, which took some two hours for 35 firefighters to take under control, LFB reported on its official webpage.
